Aww that was a sweet story. Loved your descriptions at the beginning. I was really able to see the room Nick woke up in. Also loved Amy. Great job!

Loved both of your birthday challenges :) Here's mine! http://absolutechaos.net/viewstory.php?sid=10623

And the NKOTBSB one is still in progress lol
First of all, I love Nick's thoughts on the bday song because I am the same exact way! In fact, all my friends know if we are in a restaurant no one is to know it's my Bday. If they come sing to me I will get up and leave the table! lol

You're so good at getting into Nick's head. I love reading him through your eyes. Also loved the idea of the hat and how they all shared it. I love things like that.

Great job!

Thanks mare :) I'm glad that you liked it. I love writing Nick and his random thoughts! His head is so fun to get into lol.

You're welcome. For some reason I can't leave reviews so i'm just doing it here lol I agree, Nick's head can be a fun place. Also a confusing one!

I joked in my review of Steph's that it's kind of funny that we both ended up writing 1st person Nick stories about his 30th birthday! lol Great minds...

I know, I saw that and I did think it was kind of funny as well. Although I have you both beat with the Nick turning 30 birthday story! LOL I actually went back and checked to see if I mentioned it had to be Nick.

LOL well Nick in his 30s is just so appealing! It's neat that we had such a different take on what his 30th birthday would be like though.

Excellent! I was about to just bump this up to remind people about it but now I don't have to, even though I guess I am just by responding. LOL

Definitely going with "Back in the Day".. since I'm currently writing in B&B times, it'll help....a little.
